Who woulda thought?

I thought after getting our shop wiped out by the floods last year, and losing or throwing out almost 50% of our inventory, almost all our accessories and some equipment, we could look forward to a new future.

We put in new flooring, walls...etc...

Last week, we were almost back to where we were a year ago.....with no government or insurance assistance we had to rebuild a piece at a time....at our expense

Well, today we were hit by floods again....We've been here 10 years and never had a problem...and now, two years in a row.

Right now we have about 2 feet of water in our shop...our course is about 1/3 underwater....and it is supposed to peak in height at 5:00pm tomorrow.

It is dark and there no electricity in the shop....I am assuming a short (obviously), so I have no idea how much damage to components, machines, tools we will incur....I have to wait till tomorrow for daylight and acess the situation.

This sucks.

But, life goes on.....and so will we.

But just expect our turn around time on any orders to be slightly not as fast as normal.....LOL

Maybe you should look into some pontoons so that when the water goes up, so does the shop?  There are some houses near me (they are in a flood zone, I am not) that have these. Strange area to live in.
